Three individuals have been reported to have sustained injuries in a shooting that occurred last night in Mount Oliver. An investigation is now underway by the Allegheny County Police. The incident occurred near a business on Brownsville Road around 9:30 p.m., as detailed by WTAE.
Upon arriving, officers discovered several shell casings but initially did not locate any victims or suspects. Information released by the police subsequently revealed that two individuals had already been transported to the hospital. These victims included an 18-year-old woman who had been shot in the foot and a 23-year-old man with a wound to the buttock, both of whom are now in stable condition. Around two hours following the initial investigation, a third victim was located with a graze wound to their arm and was similarly taken to the hospital, described to also be in stable condition, as stated by reports from CBS News Pittsburgh.
